Which bride does not want a fairytale wedding? Right from décor, venue, wedding dress, flowers, food menu, wedding shoes etc. is planned to the T. Elaborate plans are etched in the heads while they are revisited at least several times over and over again. In this quest for perceived perfection, most brides often tend to overlook or ignore details of their wedding that ideally warrants attention.
Wedding dress is the attire that a bride wears on this special and important day. In Western culture, brides wear a white wedding gown, while in Eastern cultures red is considered an auspicious colour to kickstart a new life.
Wedding dress has to look great no doubt, but it should be comfortable and compliment the body type. Take a trusted friend along for shopping for the wedding dress.
Insist for a trial before the wedding to know how it fits. Wearing too long dress increases the risks of tripping and falling. Revealing dresses also should be avoided. Choose the material and design based on the weather and venue.
Another important factor is makeup and hair. If your makeup is too much or too little, it can haunt you for the rest of your life. Always have a window period between the beauty treatments and the wedding day.
Re-touch your makeup during the wedding day from time to time.
Get a makeup trial before the wedding day to know what kind of makeup will suit your face and skin type. Using a little extra blush will brighten up your face.
Choose a concealer and a foundation that is very close to your skin type. It is a good idea to use waterproof mascara and eyeliner.
Hair is another aspect that should be impeccable. Choose a hairstyle that will suit the dress and your face. Again, get a hairstyle trial before the wedding day.
Find a good stylist who can recommend good hairstyles and above all who can be trusted. Avoid colouring your hair just before your wedding. Wash your hair one day before the wedding, but avoid using conditioner. Also, it is advisable to have a hair cut 2-3 months before the wedding.
Wedding shoes are also equally important. Choose a pair of good fitting and comfortable shoes. Purchase wedding shoes well in advance and try them for at least 20 minutes each day until the wedding to avoid shoe bites on the D day.
Try embellished shoes to add a dash of zing and color to the entire look. If you are planning to wear heels, then practice walking in heels to avoid tripping and falling.
To have a perfect and hassle-free wedding, it is essential to adhere to the timelines of the events for the wedding. Draft a timetable and distribute it to the key persons involved at the wedding.
You can also sit with the groom and his family and run through the timetable to alleviate any confusions and delays on the wedding day.
Wedding is a beautiful day in any girl’s life, so cherish it by making it perfect and special. Avoid these common wedding disasters so that the sunshine is not stolen from the stunning moments.
